Shop Till You Drop!

Our society today is all about buying. If you don’t have the latest product you are seen as

balled up or not up-to-date. We live in a consumer culture, which is a culture that views

the consumption of large quantities of goods as beneficial to the economy and a source of

personal happiness. Companies used this to try to get you to buy their product. For

example, Listerine’s message is if you don’t use our product, you will be an outcast and

unattractive from your halitosis, which is only a fancy term for bad breath. Another way

people sell products is to ease your daily life. George Washington Carver, for example,

sells multiple products derived from peanuts and potatoes. Some of them are face

powder, printer’s ink, and soap from peanuts and flour, shoe polish, and candy, from

potatoes. Clarence Birdseye created a way to flash-freeze food and Charles Stride

invented the pop-up toaster because he was sick of his bread being burned.

Advertisements help to sell these products

so “eagerly wanted” by the American

public. These new advertisements create a

demand for new products and no longer

tell you why the product was or why it

was good, it targets your desires and

behaviors so that you want it badly.

Businesses do this by using psychologists

to design the commercials to be “needed”

by the listener. Businesses now change

their styles frequently and introduce goods

that introduce goods that last a long time.

Some good examples are cars, household appliances, or furniture. Advertisements and

businesses worked together to convince people to stay up to date or buying the latest

item. In society, if you buy a new product, even if it’s unnecessary, you will be

considered prestigious.

People can’t afford some of those products and are still able to buy them, all because of

credit and installment buying. People used this money to pay for more expensive

upgrades to products like upgrading to a washing machine from a washboard or to an

electric shaver to a razor. Credit is buying something with money borrowed from the

bank, and paying it off later over time. Only a few years ago it was considered shameful

to take out a loan to buy consumer goods, now it’s considered old fashioned. Installment

buying is when the buyer makes a down payment on the product and the seller loans the

remainder of the money to help pay for the product. The buyer then makes monthly

payments on the product with monthly installments and if they buyer stops paying, the

seller can reclaim the item. Nowadays, 15% of all retail sales in America are on

installment buying. Three out of every four radios and six out of every ten cars are

bought with installment buying. People think that it will stay berries in the U.S.
